"I now pronounce you husband and wife," he announces. "You may kiss the bride." The priest finishes. My husband leans in close to me and I feel his lips brush against mine before they finally rest on the side of my mouth. It lasts one second. And then, he parts away. ••• Most of the romance novels end at an alter - but Lillian's story starts at one. Being married to the millionaire James Clark was not something Lillian Vince signed up for when she decided to visit her parents one afternoon, right after her college classes ended. Yet, life had been waiting to spring this surprise on her. She could have said no, but her parents' tears were all she considered before agreeing, despite her brain screaming a big no. James is anything but an ideal husband. He left the responsibility of finding a way to end the engagement before it even happened on her. But, despite every effort, she walks down the aisle. The problem? There's no agreement that says they can break their marriage off. It's a lifetime deal. Being trapped into this marriage, follow Lillian's story towards emancipation.

❝He was a killer and I was his darling puppet. ❞ • • • A sinner in the disguise of a smaller one. Antonio Giordano was a cold-blooded murderer. His intense gaze and sickening smirk was the last thing his victims saw before they were killed. He was a devil in the disguise of an angel's body. Or so, the world thought. They called him the Ace...or the Don. She called him something entirely different. Francesca Lastra was his the moment she entered adulthood and she had made amends with the fact. It was her destiny and if not him then someone worse. But that didn't mean she didn't fear the outcome. After all, rumours were all she had of him. A newly wedded couple. A war ordered. A young girl to protect. And everything filled with strife and chaos. Possibly, what could go wrong? ••• to be published on GALATEA on 07/29/2022 - unfinished! * This book holds sensitive content and mentally disturbing relationships. I do not condone it and this book is only for entertainment purposes. It is called a dark romance due to the dubious consent and dark setting. * 18+ ______ REVIEWS FROM READERS______ "This is one of those books that I'll have to re-read as soon as it completed." - abeer_2020 "Mafia Puppet is the first book I actually liked.

Axel James King commands attention as the ultimate heartthrob - blessed with looks, wealth, and a trail of adoring girls. A world of opulence and glamour orbits around him until his gaze locks on Chloe Jones. Chloe, the classic good girl, is all about doing things right - stellar grades, on a scholarship, and from a down-to-earth background. Juggling two jobs to make ends meet, she quietly shoulders the responsibility of caring for her father, navigating a life that's far from easy. As their worlds collide, the clash of cool meets good isn't all smooth sailing. Tensions rise, and the unexpected chemistry between Axel and Chloe threatens to disrupt the status quo of Richmonte High's social hierarchy. Dominic King strongly disapproves of his son's relationship, but the storm truly hits when a scandalous video of Axel and Chloe spreads like wildfire at school, turning their lives upside down. To escape the drama, they run away, but life outside isn't as rosy as they thought. Dealing with surprise obstacles, a silent tension sneaks into Axel and Chloe's relationship, making them wonder if leaving their old lives behind for each other was actually a big, regrettable mistake. It's like an unspoken question hanging in the air - can their love tough it out or will it crumble under the pressure?

And he's always having to run off when they have a chance to be alone together.
